Click here for the most recent movie review by Zach!

Zach Camenker is a self-proclaimed “old soul” and film fanatic since childhood when his parents introduced him to classics like SINGIN’ IN THE RAIN and WHITE CHRISTMAS. Zach is most interested in classic films of the Studio Era and the history of the Academy Awards. He is a proud member of Red River Theatres and has also been a member of the New Hampshire Jewish Film Festival Committee for over two years.

Zach has blogged about movies at www.classicfilmfanatic.wordpress.com for over eight years, especially during awards season! A middle school English language arts teacher in Bedford by day, Zach delights in teaching our youth to examine themes and ideas in literature much in the same way he enjoys examining films. Zach holds a BA in English and Secondary Education from Saint Anselm College and an M.Ed. in Language Education and TESOL from Plymouth State University. He has lived in Concord for over five years now and loves the arts, entertainment, culture, and dining that the capital city has to offer!
